But after getting broken to cut his lead in the third set to 2-1, Djokovic called for the trainer, who manipulated and massaged the right elbow.Djokovic also had his right arm worked on during his first-round victory on Day 1 of the tournament.

But Pouille, a 22-year-old with flashy strokes, presented a much sterner challenge in the fourth round, pushing Nadal to the limit over 4 hours, 7 minutes of tense -- and intense -- exchanges.This was Pouilles third career victory in a five-setter -- and all have come in his past three matches.Since losing in last years French Open quarterfinals, Nadal has failed to make it beyond the fourth round at a major.This season, he lost in the first round of the Australian Open.

She hadnt won a match at a major in 2016 until arriving in New York.She lost U.S. Open finals in 2009 against Kim Clijsters and 2014 against Serena Williams.On Sunday, Wozniacki made only seven unforced errors, 26 fewer than Keys.---1:30 p.m.Gael Monfils sizzling summer rolls on with a quarterfinal run at the U.S. Open.The 10th-seeded Frenchman swept Marcos Baghdatis 6-3, 6-2, 6-3 on Sunday to improve to 18-2 in matches hes played since a first-round loss at Wimbledon.
